Abstract

Encapsulation of tetraazamacrocyclic complexes of Co(II), Cu(II) and V(IV) into zeolite-Y has been accomplished, and the resulting materials were used as heterogeneous catalysts for aerobic oxidation of styrene. The materials were prepared by a ship-in-a-bottle method, in which the transition metal cations were first ion-exchanged into zeolite-Y and then reacted with ethylenediamine, followed by acetylacetone. The pure tetraazamacrocyclic complexes were characterized by FTIR, solid UV–Vis and elemental analysis. The structural integrity throughout the immobilization procedure, the successful immobilization of the macrocyclic complexes, and the loadings of metal ions and macrocyclic ligands were determined by characterization techniques such as FTIR, diffuse reflection UV–Vis, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, TG/DTA and powder X-ray diffraction. Compared with their homogeneous analogues, the catalytic properties of the encapsulated macrocyclic complexes in the oxidation of styrene with air were investigated. The immobilized complexes proved to be active catalysts and could be reused without significant loss in activity.
